Ben A Korngold

What this record tells you

Ben A Korngold holds Florida licence MRSA4505, a MRSA classification which authorises work as a licensed mold assessor. An "R" prefix means the licence is registered, which limits work to the local jurisdictions that accepted it rather than the whole state.

This licence was first issued in 2022, which makes it a relatively recent licence for the trade in this area. Roughly 62% of the 245 active mold inspection licences based in the West Palm Beach area were issued earlier than this one, and the local median sits at 2020. That is 4 years of continuous licensure.

Ben A Korngold is one of 66 active mold inspection licences registered to an address in Boca Raton, so you have local alternatives to compare quotes against.

The licence is recorded as expiring on 07/31/2028. Florida licences renew on a fixed cycle, and a licence that is not renewed moves to delinquent status — which is why the expiry date matters if you are planning work close to that date. Confirm the current status on the state portal before signing a contract.
